[TYPO3-dev] Extension Manager Hanging in beta3 & CVS

[Steve Webster]

Hi List,

I just installed beta3 having previously been using beta2 OK.

I completed a fresh install but the Ext. Manager is "hit-and-miss" in 
regards to responsiveness.

In my PHP error log I see:

[22-Feb-2006 10:43:28] PHP Fatal error:  Maximum execution time of 30 
seconds exceeded in c:\documents and settings\Steve\workspace\typo3 4.0 
beta 3\html\t3lib\class.t3lib_div.php on line 2120

which relates to:

	return file_get_contents($url);

I'm not behind a proxy and therefore have no need for curl.  I did a bit 
of dirty debugging and it seems to be a problem retreiving:

	http://repositories.typo3.org/mirrors.xml.gz

I can retreive this in my browser manually so I know the content is 
there.  Furthermore, I created a simple test PHP file:

<?php
  echo file_get_contents("http://repositories.typo3.org/mirrors.xml.gz");
?>

This produces the same problem?  If I use http://www.google.com/ as the 
URL it works as you would expect.

Not sure what is so special about that URL?

Environment: Win XP, PHP 5.1.2, Apache 1.3
